Timing

Timing is everything; therefore the timing of the Lord is perfect and in His appointed time, all things are made beautiful.
He has made everything beautiful in its time. He also has planted eternity in men's hearts and minds [a divinely implanted sense of a purpose working through the ages which nothing under the sun but God alone can satisfy], yet so that men cannot find out what God has done from the beginning to the end. ( Eccl. 3:11)

Favor

One day in the presence of the Lord is better than a thousand anywhere else. One moment of His favor is better than years of struggle and your life will never be the same.
For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord will give grace and glory; no good thing will He with-hold from those who walk uprightly. (Psalm 84:11)

Arise in Victory

Although many depressing situations are all around, as people of faith we are learning to arise with a victorious mindset because of faith in an unfailing and unchanging God. Just as in past challenges, God has helped us to overcome tumultuous situations and is faithful to continue helping in this season of challenges. God is still able to do exceedingly above all that we can ask or think according to the power that works within us. This is a time to arise in victory and not accept the agony of defeat; we are more than conquerors and gain a surpassing victory through Christ who loves us.
